Abstract
This thesis explores the use of building maintenance records of the Nigerian Air Force Base, Jos, for the purposes of planning building maintenance work. There is need to organise and manage the scarce resources usually available for maintenance work in a prudent manner. However, this is only possible if decisions are based on informed judgement. The study is concerned with data relating to maintenance expenditure on the various building facilities of the Base, which have to be completed tabled, juxtaposed and analysed in a manner that will make them usable in budgeting for maintenance work. A major area of interest here is to keep or improve every building facility, its services and surrounds to a currently acceptable standard and as well as to sustain the utility and value of the facility. The results of the study showed that with good planning skill and appropriate cost recording, maintenance records could be a useful tool for improving the efficiency of maintenance budgeting. Recommendations on how to improve the reliability of this information through appropriate methods of documentation have also been made.
